For the last three years, the University of Madras has not accepted and distributed the statement of brands and interim certificates to students based on their associated universities. Reason: He had no funds for the purchase of stationery and had them printed for distribution.
Students trying to strive for higher studies or join work have to personally have to approach the university to get their interim certificate and stamps statements.
Officials at the university who did not want to be identified have stated that students who follow higher studies must submit evidence such as an admission letter from the university. Students who joined work were asked to submit a copy of their appointment letter.
This is only an indicator of the financial doldrums that the university has been in the last few years.
At the beginning of this year, the financial committee called on the drastic cuts of the university budget under various heads to handle the financial crisis. Grant from the state government also dried up, after the local authority for the Fund audit raised several objections to the audit.
Relief in sight
However, there seems to be some light at the end of the tunnel. Last month, the university received another grant of 17.84 GBP from the state government. It relieved the crisis a little. Part of the fund is now used to purchase stationery and print commands and interim certificates.
“Distribution of brands of brands of 5.50 Lakhy students Each semester is not an easy task,” said Rita John, registrar.
“We started the process of cleaning the pending regulations. It will take some time, because under us we have 118 associated universities and 37 autonomous,” said prof. John.
A similar number of students was also entered in the institute of distance education of the university, she added.
The university managed to complete the printing of certificates at postgraduate level. Now she began to process pending at the level of university level, said C. Arulvas, test controller.
